WHEN WAS RAMA BORN: (based on Valmiki`s Ramayana) One of the most anticipated topics in this modern era is that when was Rama born?Before dwelling onto this point, we have to understand that our great Maharishies have systematically divided the period of shristi into Manvantars.

Maharishi Valmiki, in order to guide the future generations, decided to write a historical epic that can help everyone follow a path of morality and righteousness. Later on, he consulted Narada Muni, who in return suggested him to write about Rama, the son of Dasratha, who was born in the clan of Raghu. This book throws light on the lineage of Raghu, and also states various kings who ruled after Rama.(The calculations of chaturyugies will be dealt with in another topic called “Age of present shristi”).The difficulties encountered in establishing chronological correctness of historical events for the period before Christ will be dealt with in the other article called “Blunders of History.” Another interesting fact that has been mentioned in Valmiki’s Ramayana is that the maternal home of Bharat and Shatrughan was in a country where transportations took place in the form of vehicles being propelled by dogs or deers.However, Vayu purana provides us the correct chronological period of Ramayana.If we take Vayu purana’s period into consideration then the period of Rama becomes at least 18,000,000 years old.Each Manvantar is further divided into chaturyugis.

Each chaturyugis consist of Krita (satyuga), traita, dwapar, and kaliyuga. So far, twenty-seven chaturyugies have already been passed.

As of now, many scientists, based on astronomical data, have propounded that Rama existed around 5044 BC.

In such a perplexing situation it becomes very difficult for common masses to arrive at any conclusive view regarding the existence of Rama.

This particular view is also supported by the fact that when Hanuman travelled to Shri Lanka in the search of Sita, over there he saw elephants having four teeth.

Hence, this is now an issue for archaeologists/biologists to ascertain when did such elephants exist on earth?

We present an insightful article by eminent scholar of Vedas and History – Sri Rajveer Arya (aryarajveer @ gmail.com) written three years ago on the issue of Sri Rama being a myth or a historical legend.
